from Matlab 2 Latex by Kevin Mader
A function to convert matlab functions to formatted colored .tex files .

out=m2tex(filein,fileout)
function out=m2tex(filein,fileout)
%mtex(m-file in,latex file out)
% Copyright 2006 Kevin Mader
%
%		Arguments::
% m-file is the m-file you wish to translate to latex
% latex file out if the name of the output file you would like to make
% if the second argument is omitted the program will create an output file
% with the same name as the input file but with extension .tex
%
% m2tex will operate in another mode where you give it out=m2tex('m
% stuff'); and it will convert the string containing lines in matlab to a
% string of tex commands for instant gratification
%
%		About::
% m2tex produces a latex file that can be included in a presentation or report
% using the \include{latex file out} function in latex.
% The program recognizes strings and major loop/if-else/switch functions
% The program will also properly indent your file in latex although tab support
% is not yet complete.
